Yes I look at my character if I'm waiting for que or whatever. I transmog all my gear and never wear my helm. But in all honesty how much is it really gonna change? Great, the new female humans has abs and kneecaps. Cant see them anyways with a bp and pants on. New face? Sure looks nice but you have to zoom in pretty damn close to see the features. How long do you guys sit and stare at your avatar at that close of a distance anyways? Do you play the game that way? If you do, how do you do how the hell do you see anything going on around you?

I understand where you're coming from, and the whole character revamp takes a lot of time and effort, maybe a little bit too much for how little some players might appreciate it when it's finally there, but we can then also ask, why spend a lot of time on making good-looking enemy models? How often will you zoom in on the faces of the troll council in Throne of Thunder, or on Garrosh's new model?

Think of all the other things they could possibly spend that time and money on instead of something that isn't going to effect the gameplay

Yeah how dare the art department actually make art when they could be learning how to code and develop new modes of game play. What a bunch of stupid people who aren't working to their full potential. You should get a management job at Blizz so we can all have super awesome content again.

Customer service? Who needs it? It doesn't affect gameplay so get those people into some programming night classes so they can make a new feature. Billing? don't need them either.

Your comments really make you sound like the most obtuse and dull person of all time. Barely different? Do you even have eyes? Do you even look at anything? And is it in some way sexually arousing to be miserable and a party pooper? Some people are just ... brrr.

I've always wondered how to describe people like that. Plus they're always mentioning how they wish to keep the old look, just updated.

Why did Blizzard waste time creating new models for goblins. It's not like you notice any difference with the new ones.

Good enough comparison.
Besides anyway it's nice when a games graphics live up to the age it's in and not 2004... One of the few reasons I like other mmo's is good looking models and textures.

Seriously? Lumping anyone who likes role playing in WoW is equated to ERPer's?

As a last point to note, there is no reason. The only reason is that people asked for it, you're not one of them? Well it won't affect you I guess since you don't care how things look it won't matter what the art team on Blizzard do then will it?

No idea OP. They'll be appreciated, viewed as status quo, and then forgotten within a month. Even with the improved animations. This isn't a suggestion that they not be done... in fact, they're several years overdue. But the hype around them is very overstated.

Im not saying we fight cubes, but I'd rather have the art development into new bosses, raids or dungeons.

I do have eyes. I've seen modern video games. These "updates" are not much better than what's in the game right now. Compare the updated models to the ones in games like Rift. Then remember how old Rift is.

Hell, we might as well just kick out the guys who do lore and quests. NO MORE LEVELING CONTENT! NO MORE STORY! RAIDS ONLY!

Who's talking about Rift and why? Your whole, ahem - argument just completely shifted to something entirely different. At least try and make some sense. And open those swollen eyes, dude, it helps, I promise ...
